湍流电对流中的电荷输运标度

Charge Transport Scalings in Turbulent Electroconvection

Peichun Tsai, Zahir A. Daya, Stephen W. Morris

摘要:

本文描述了湍流电对流中平均无量纲电流$Nu$的局部幂律标度理论。实验系统由弱导电的亚微米厚的液晶膜支撑在同心圆电极之间的环形空间中组成。它被驱动到电对流由施加电压之间的内部和外部边缘。在足够大的电压差下,流动是不稳定的,并且电荷在电极之间有害地传输。我们的理论发展,这密切平行的Grossmann-Lohse模型的湍流热对流,预测本地幂律$Nu \sim F(Γ) {\cal R}^γ {\cal P}^δ$。${\cal R}$和${\cal P}$是无量纲数,分别类似于热对流的瑞利数和普朗特数。由模型指定的无量纲函数$F(Γ)$描述了$Nu$对纵横比$Γ$的依赖性。我们发现$Nu$的测量结果与理论模型是一致的。

英文摘要:

We describe a local-power law scaling theory for the mean dimensionless electric current $Nu$ in turbulent electroconvection. The experimental system consists of a weakly conducting, submicron thick liquid crystal film supported in the annulus between concentric circular electrodes. It is driven into electroconvection by an applied voltage between its inner and outer edges. At sufficiently large voltage differences, the flow is unsteady and electric charge is turbulently transported between the electrodes. Our theoretical development, which closely parallels the Grossmann-Lohse model for turbulent thermal convection, predicts the local-power law $Nu \sim F(Γ) {\cal R}^γ {\cal P}^δ$. ${\cal R}$ and ${\cal P}$ are dimensionless numbers that are similar to the Rayleigh and Prandtl numbers of thermal convection, respectively. The dimensionless function $F(Γ)$, which is specified by the model, describes the dependence of $Nu$ on the aspect ratio $Γ$. We find that measurements of $Nu$ are consistent with the theoretical model.
